⚡️Check out Chrome; it has some nice features. If I switch to another browser, this will be the reason, but Chrome adds it before that.

#Chrome #Update #Tip

The way it organized the pin tabs also very nice. 👏

PHP was a backend language long ago, but it is not anymore while NativePHP is here.🔥

This thing got even crazier.. it's going to be RC soon Insha'Allah.

A proper post regarding beta v0.4.0 will be posted, at a glance though,
If you are considering learning backend development ( for web dev ) or you know Laravel but not the behind the scenes.. this might help ( I built it for myself for the latter reason )

The learning page got better ( some pics will be in the comment section ) and bug fixes, the one I got when I was using it myself.. the doc is now slim and to the point, as everything is in the codebase itself.

It's heading for more ambitious goals.. ( hint: fullstackopen.com/en )

install:

composer create-project \
  ibnuafdel/daltphp my-project \
  --stability=beta --remove-vcs

cd my-project

AI Gateway Bug Fix + Docs Update

Fixed a critical bug where the /v1/chat/completions endpoint would hang indefinitely. Root cause: the auth middleware wasn't async, causing Fastify 5 to stall on every authenticated request.

Changes:
- Auth hook now properly awaits in Fastify 5
- Updated Groq default model to openai/gpt-oss-20b
- Added full API reference at docs/API.md with request/response examples, error codes, and cURL/JS snippets
Supported Provid

Supported Providers (9): Gemini, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter, Nvidia, Agnes, Zai, Zydit, OpenCodeZen

AI Gateway - New /v1/models Endpoint
Added a new GET /v1/models endpoint that returns all available models in OpenAI-compatible format. 28 models across 9 providers, each showing which provider owns it.

Changes:
- Added getModels() to BaseProvider for structured model discovery
- Added model arrays to all 9 providers (Gemini, Groq, Mistral, OpenRouter, Nvidia, Agnes, Zai, Zydit, OpenCodeZen)
- New GET /v1/models endpoint listing every model with its provider

Quick test:
curl http://localhost:3000/v1/models 👀
